The Hosford gauge take some understanding. Are you sure of those measurements. I find it hard to believe that a gun with .665 bores would be so thin. I have never seen the outside of a set of "nice" barrels struck to a MBWT of .017. I have a suspicion that this gun is not as bad as it seems.

Bill it is what it is I have already fitted another set of barrels to it (couple of people after me measured it too). So let's just let this thread die, Mr Julia is not going to change my mind and he is not going to change mine. So let's just say it ok to "disagree" and drop this subject. Ok....
